Strictly’s Tess Daly earns less than co-host Claudia Winkleman

For the first time, the corporation has had to disclose the earnings of talent who are paid more than £150,000 from licence fee revenue in a year, a stipulation set out in the new Royal Charter from the government.

Winkleman, who presented Strictly spin-off show, It Takes Two for six years, took over from Strictly stalwart Sir Bruce Forsyth as co-host of the main show with Daly in 2014.
